The longtime Brooklyn home of Howard Stern’s parents was labeled a landmark designation by the NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission two years before his father died, The Post has learned.

In 1996, Stern purchased this 3,100-square-foot property for his parents, Ray and Ben Stern, near Borough Park for $280,000.

Ben passed away at the age of 95 last year.

The neighborhood where the home stands was first labeled historic in 2007.

On Oct. 16, 2007, the commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the Fiske Terrace-Midwood Park Historic District due to its established architecture accommodating New York’s expanding middle class in the early 1900s.

Specifically, the house was described as part of “a rare” example of Tudor Revival-style architecture there.

The home was built by the distinguished architect Alexander Mackintosh in 1915, who was also behind the design of the Empire Building at 71 Broadway.

Mackintosh opened his own New York office by 1900, and designed numerous clubhouses, banks, office buildings and residences throughout the eastern United States — particularly in New Jersey, where he lived in his later years.

This Brooklyn house, which hasn’t been altered much, remains largely intact. Today you can see it painted blue.

In October 2020, the house was specifically voted on again by the commission as a landmark designation.

But it’s unclear why the home was specifically marked a landmark a second time around — and if the younger Stern’s connection to it had anything to do with it.

The Post has reached out for comment.

Stern’s mom, Ray, 95, continues to live in there, but sources say she has been struggling over the loss of her husband, to whom she had been married for more than 75 years.

The deed of the property remains in their son’s name.

In September 2022, Stern returned to his SiriusXM morning show after a summer off the air to announce the death of his father.

“My father, as it turned out, had prostate cancer and it has metastasized to his bones,” the shock jock revealed, who recalled his father’s love for “fountain pens” and “his desk.”

Stern also spoke of his father’s “secret” glass eye, a “handicap” about which Ben was resolutely private.

“You didn’t ask my father anything,” said Stern. “He could blow up.”

“I’m sad about it, I am,” said continued of his father’s death. “My family is very strange. I’ve given you glimpses and I’ve always made jokes about it. But I remember I went to my mother and I said to her, ‘Mom, I think you should go visit dad at the hospice — he’s dying.’ She’s like, ‘No, no, I’m not going.’ She didn’t want to go. I said, ‘You’re going to regret this. You should go. Do it for me.’ That still didn’t move her.”

Eventually, Stern’s daughter, Ashley, a nurse practitioner, convinced her grandmother to go.

“My mother got dressed, she went over to see my dad, spent an hour over at the hospice. A couple of hours later, my father was dead.”
